BEHIND EVERY GREAT EXPERIENCE IS A WELL-EXECUTED VISION

“Two years in a row, I’ve had the pleasure of partnering with Epic Gatherings to bring my students to this marvelous land. I’ll never forget the first time I walked through the gates of the Villa, under an archway of trees. My jaw dropped in joyful awe as the reality of the setting far surpassed the beautiful pictures I had seen. And my appreciation only deepened as I tasted our first sumptuous meal, met the staff, saw the rooms, and explored the grounds.”

LAURA DAVIS, CALIFORNIA. BESTSELLING AUTHOR

★★★★★ 5/5
“This is a real retreat where participants fill their heart with peace, their bellies with find food, and their need for time alone, time to write, and time for making friends all present. A delight for all the senses and a true growth experience.”
~ Cheryl Achterberg. Superior, Colorado
“If you want to spend time in an idyllic environment where there’s an opportunity to be creative while wining and dining in the regional cuisine, swimming, walking the trails around the property, studying the night sky, admiring the flowers and trees… This is the place for you.”
~ Leslie Lemons. Ann Arbor, Michigan
"The retreat surpassed all my expectations: from the food to the people, the staff, and everything that I was learning everyday... I leave with so much gratitude and a full heart. This is the type of experience you want to have at least once in your life."
~ Angela Cassasa. Santiago, Chile.
Graseilah [villa host] was both professional and kind. I could tell right away that she was confident and proud of Italy and that she loved sharing Italian culture with us. She hired the best staff and executed everything to a tee.”
~ Kim Lanzillota. Los Angeles, California
“The villa is the Ideal setting/venue. Inspiring, connected to the earth, comfortable, and steep in history. How delightful to be surrounded by the estate’s creatures: Kenny, the most congenial dog on the planet, the ever-vocal peacocks, the farm cats, the floating butterflies, and the choir of birds.”
~ Gail Newel. Santa Cruz, California
"I had an amazing time. Being in such a majestic villa was one of the many highlights. Such a beautiful landscape: all the gardens, olive groves, vineyards and the old architecture... It really was Epic. It was so special to be in a place with so much history that still keeps ancient traditions alive for making olive oil, wine and living from the land."
~ Clay Burns. Madrid, Spain
“The staff were extremely kind and accommodating. Graseilah is an amazing guide, who not only translated our choices at each meal, but also translated our desires to the staff and fielded any questions we had. She also had a great sense of humor.”
~ Karen Schuster. Newmarket, New Hampshire
It was so wonderful to start from day one feeling full of life and hope for the future. I mistakenly thought it would not be until “the end” of the retreat that I would feel the benefit. Rather, by the end my heart was as full as it has ever been. I came away with rich relationships, heartfelt revelations, and a sense of well-being I can share with the world around me."
~ Kristin Farnum. Berkeley, California.
“The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and healthy. The accommodations were spotless, and apartments were spacious. The grounds and the entire facility are nothing less than spectacular. We also had the best tour guides possible!”
~ Sharon Fleming. Denver, Colorado
I love places with soul, history and heart, Epic Tuscany has all of that. It was truly an epic experience to live the Italian lifestyle and see why so many people are centenarians. I will definitely come back to this retreat.
~ Dr. Liz Esalen. Santa Cruz, California
I would definitely recommend! Go to a new and beautiful spot. Meet and bond with wonderful people. Dig into your practice. Eat yummy food. Trust that your needs will be met.
~ Joy Overstreet. Portland Oregon
